Tue, 23 Oct 2018 14:27:09 +0000http://www.theposshow.com/?p=895Happy Birthday to us, which we totally forgot about! To celebrate one year of POS, we’re giving YOU a jam-packed show with tons of politics and sports.
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - “It’s closing time…” for both political parties as they make their final case to voters. Trump is spending a lot of time talking about a migrant caravan, and Democrats are spending a lot of time talking about not being Donald Trump.
Hot Takes - Did you know Lou Holtz and Mark May have a show on YouTube? Neither did anyone else apparently. We mock it. Senator Cory Booker has a higher ed plan that’s a bad idea for various reasons. We mock it, too.
POS Nuggets - The Turkish government has handled the slow drip of information about Jamal Khashoggi’s murder masterfully, keeping it in the news and at the forefront of people's minds. What wasn’t masterful was Ohio State’s drubbing at the hands of Perdue. We look at the implications for the Top 25.

Show Rundown:
The Big POS - What will America’s response to Khashoggi be? There are both charitable and uncharitable explanations for Trump declining to speak for forcefully thus far. And, he’s not helping when he praises the result of a reporter in Montana from a now-Congressman.
Hot Takes - People are understandably reticent to testify before the House Oversight Committee behind “closed doors.” An alternative to one-and-done emerges for the NBA.
POS Nuggets - We look at the MAGA rally phenomenon. Plus, we agree with Obama on something.
Predictions! - In college ball, #6 Michigan -7 at #24 Michigan State, #9 Oklahoma -8 at TCU, and #16 NC State -17.5 at #3 Clemson.

The Big POS - Senator Elizabeth Warren made a boneheaded tactical decision in releasing DNA test results that don’t actually say what she wants them to say. She’s become the center of the conversation that Democrats don’t need three weeks out from the election.

POS Nuggets - What makes a great NFL QB? A little thought experiment you can play along with. Plus, did the woeful Giants get it right when drafting Saquon Barkley?

Show Rundown:
Interview with Susanne Craig - A year and a half in the making, the New York Times dug through Trump empire financial records from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, and arrived at some incontrovertible truths: Donald Trump is not self made, and in fact received hundreds of millions worth of financial help from his father - some of it via what the New York Times has deemed clear tax fraud - to get where he is today. Susanne Craig, one of the writers, lays out the story in detail. You can read the original story here.
Hot Takes - Our long Kavanaugh nightmare is almost over with his confirmation all but assured. We talk about the politics that got us here, and whether it will ever get any better.

Show Rundown:
The Big POS - Thursday offered a compelling day of testimony from Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh that changed literally no one’s mind. We break down the dumbest takes, what should happen next, and what likely will happen next.
Hot Takes - The Murphy Brown reboot with Hillary Clinton is pretty darn awful. The Rams with Jared Goff are pretty darn good.
POS Nuggets - After four games, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney made a controversial decision to name freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence the starter over senior Kelly Bryant, leading Bryant to transfer. The House will hold a secret hearing next week with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, and we have a sneaking suspicion how it will go.

Show Rundown -
Interview with Bill Browder: At one time the largest foreign investor in Russia, Bill Browder was banned from the country in 2005 for refusing to play ball with Russia’s corrupt oligarchy. Not long afterward, his friend and attorney Sergei Magnitsky was killed in a Russian prison after being arrested for continuing Browder’s work of exposing corruption there. Since then, Browder has successfully lobbied a number of countries to pass “Magnitsky Acts,” which freeze the assets and revoke visas of Russia’s oligarchs. His advocacy has hit Vladimir Putin so hard that he was the one person Putin mentioned by name at the Helsinki summit. We discuss Bill’s work, the current state of Russian affairs, and his thoughts on the Trump Administration.
POS Nuggets: The Disney and Fox merger is approved, and we discuss how it might affect sports coverage. Bryce Harper might get dealt from the Nationals. The Koch brothers have drawn Donald Trump’s ire.

Plus, Joel and JC delve into news on child separation at the border and new NCAA rules.
Show Rundown:
Interview with Asha Rangappa - Last week the DOJ’s Inspector General released a report on the Clinton email investigation that continues to be fodder for political partisans of all stripes. Among its findings were breaches of protocol and evidence of bias among investigators. As a former FBI agent, Asha gives her take on what it all means, and what Americans should know about how the FBI conducts investigations. Plus, we get into some of the other legal news surrounding the President, specifically the NY Attorney General suit and the latest with Michael Cohen. Most importantly, we find out Asha’s go-to karaoke song.
POS Nuggets - Children of immigrants attempting to cross the border illegally are being taken away from their parents. JC and Joel weigh in on why it’s wrong, and the Administration’s shifting explanations. Plus...the NCAA did something right for a change.

Will the outcome be substantive, or just a photo op? Also in politics, Hollywood is playing into Trump’s hands. In sports, we talk the LeBron-stakes, a controversial high school track meet, and the College World Series.
Show Rundown -
The Big POS: If you ever wondered what the Trump Doctrine of foreign policy is, wonder no more. Trump ended a contentious G7 still tweeting insults at Canadian PM Justin Trudeau, as Trump headed to Singapore for face to face talks with Kim Jong Un. Will they lead to anything, or is it just the world's most expensive photo op?
Hot Takes: Joel rebukes the idea of LeBron headed to the West, but JC disagrees. A trans female smoked biological females at a high school track meet, and Joel and JC agree it isn’t fair.
POS Nuggets: Hollywood’s and the media elite’s tone on Trump are playing right into his hands, while they still wonder why he won. In sports, the College World Series Super Regionals have been fantastic, and college baseball generally is becoming better and better as a sports product.

Hot Takes - Donald Trump is turning heads on Twitter, including with the pardon of a conservative provocateur.

Plus, a Mueller update, poking fun at DC sports, and sad news from sports journalism. Don’t miss it!
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - In an effort to create a compromise, the NFL has perhaps created an even bigger headache for itself with its new National Anthem policy, mandating that players must stand or stay in the locker room. JC and Joel dive in to why the policy is flat out un-American, and how the NFL is creating an entirely new set of problems for itself.
Hot Takes - Social Justice Warriors’ heads are spinning over a Canadian waxing controversy. A federal judge issues a dumb decision regarding Twitter.
POS Nuggets - After a year, narratives and counter-narratives are beginning to take hold regarding the Mueller investigations. JC wants him to hurry up, Joel calls for patience. DC’s hockey team is mocked. Plus, sad news for sports journalism as a major online outlet shutters, reflecting a larger industry trend.

Mon, 21 May 2018 18:15:23 +0000http://www.theposshow.com/?p=738Donald Trump is taking it up a notch with his beef with the FBI and DOJ. We pick apart the latest conspiracy theory. Elsewhere in politics, no one is doing anything to secure our schools. In sports, a shout out to the Golden Knights, dumb sports reporter questions, and JJ Watt. Also...we answer what Donald Trump and the NBA have in common.
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - The President is lighting up Twitter again, lashing out at anything and everything regarding what Special Counsel Bob Mueller is (or is not) investigating. This time, his blunt object is an unfounded conspiracy theory about the FBI allegedly “implanting” someone in his campaign. Spoiler Alert: There is zero evidence it happened. Joel and JC break down the latest ranting, plus a bigger picture look at how not to handle an investigation.

The Big POS - The President is lighting up Twitter again, lashing out at anything and everything regarding what Special Counsel Bob Mueller is (or is not) investigating. This time, his blunt object is an unfounded conspiracy theory about the FBI allegedly “implanting” someone in his campaign. Spoiler Alert: There is zero evidence it happened. Joel and JC break down the latest ranting, plus a bigger picture look at how not to handle an investigation.<br />

Elsewhere in politics, the U.S. Embassy in Israel officially moved to Jerusalem, we learn more about Russian Propaganda, and the White House teaches us how not to apologize. In sports, the Cavs got smoked in Game 1...can they recover? Don’t miss this POS Show!
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - In a 7-2 ruling, the Supreme Court has struck down a 1992 Federal Law that prohibited most sports betting outside the state of Nevada, saying states should be able to regulate sports betting themselves. Sports betting is a $150 BILLION yearly industry, with only a fraction of that, $5 billion yearly, being placed through legal sports betting in Nevada. JC and Joel break down the Court’s decision and what this means for sports fans.
Hot Takes - Joel talks about the White House’s ham-fisted handling of a tasteless joke, while JC weighs in on Russian Propaganda.
POS Nuggets - The Celtics rose up on the Cavs in Game One of the Conference finals, holding LeBron James to just 15 points. The Celtics definitely smell blood in the water, but the Cavs have looked like they're on the ropes before only to come back and win when it counts. Will they get it together, or will their playoff run end - and along with it, possibly the LeBron era in Cleveland (again)? Also, violence erupted in Israel today as the United States celebrated the opening of its Jerusalem embassy. While most of the reaction has broken down along predictably partisan lines, Joel and JC look at both sides of the issue and discuss a pretty rationale take on the situation, from Obama's former Ambassador to Israel.

The Big POS - Rudy Giuliani is still on TV defending the President, but some say he’s doing more harm than good.

We look at it all in the context Trump’s popularity holding steady and the news media’s role our society’s political polarization.
Hot Takes - JC gives a shout out to hockey fans in Nashville, while Joel has a warning to everyone who is praising Kanye.
POS Nuggets - The Cavs are up 3-0, as are the Celtics in the East. In the West, Golden State and Houston both lead their respective series 3-1. It all begs the question...does the NBA regular season even matter, and can we make the NBA great again? Our political nugget for the day discusses the phenomenon of being “Trumpier than Trump,” especially in West Virginia where an ex-convict is on the cusp of winning the Republican Primary with some bizarre ads that contain racial rhetoric and accusations of cocaine smuggling aimed at Senator Mitch McConnell.

Is there a method to this legal madness? Plus, a shout out to Mossad and our new favorite doctor. In sports, strikeouts reign in MLB, Bama tops the preseason NCAA poll, and can the Cavs take the Raptors? Joel and JC break it all down.
Show Rundown:
The Big POS: When former federal prosecutor and NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani took the helm of the Trump legal team, he predicted the Mueller probe could end in weeks. If he keeps doing cable news appearances, he may prove himself correct but not in the way he thought. Giuliani dropped a bomb into the news cycle when he revealed Trump did, in fact, know about Michael Cohen’s payments to Stormy Daniels - contradicting previous statements from both Trump and Cohen, and something that could have implications with regard to campaign finance violations. This comes the same week as the Trump legal team released an outline to the questions Mueller wants answers to from the President, in an attempt to show the Special Counsel investigation has gone off the rails. Was it a shrewd legal move, or a huge backfire?
Hot Takes: Joel gives a shout out to Mossad, the Israeli special forces that made a brazen document grab in Iran. JC delves into Trump Doc Harold Bornstein, who we can’t help feel a little bad for.
POS Nuggets: In what some people are calling an anomaly, others are calling a sign of how baseball is now played - for the first time ever, the MLB went a full month where strikeouts outnumbered hits. Joel and JC discuss why it might or might not be significant. Plus, another way-too-early NCAA football preseason ranking is out, and the guys break down what’s right, what’s wrong, and what’s probably just click bait.

Tue, 17 Apr 2018 00:01:13 +0000http://www.theposshow.com/?p=579JC and Joel take a deep dive into the James Comey book release and media blitz. Also, why politicians that don't know sports shouldn't try to talk about sports and why sportswriting needs a check. This week's True Champions include a senator and a bear.
Show Rundown
The Big POS: JC and Joel delve into all things Comey, starting with a Culture Club reference. The former FBI Director has clearly gotten under the President’s skin. And Comey is clearly going to sell a lot of books. But both sides question his credibility and impartiality. Does Comey have a story worth telling, or is just cashing in on his 15 minutes?

<br />
The Big POS: JC and Joel delve into all things Comey, starting with a Culture Club reference. The former FBI Director has clearly gotten under the President’s skin. And Comey is clearly going to sell a lot of books. But both sides question his credibility and impartiality. Does Comey have a story worth telling, or is just cashing in on his 15 minutes? Is he ultimately believable, and how (if it all) will he impact the larger Russia investigation?<br />

Plus, remember Syria? JC tells the world why he dislikes the Washington Nationals and wants the Expos back. Joel continues to have contempt for the month of April in the NBA and we predict what the House may look like post-Paul Ryan.
Show Rundown:The Big POS: The hits just keep coming for the Trump Administration. The week opened with incredible news, as FBI agents in concert with the New York US Attorney’s Office raided the office of Trump Organization lawyer Michael Cohen. As more details emerge, it seems that law enforcement is focused on payments to women who have accused Trump over the years of extramarital dalliances, and a former doorman who alleges a Trump lovechild. Meanwhile, former FBI Director James Comey’s book is set to be released, and he’s embarked on a PR tour as the RNC has amped up efforts to discredit him.
Hot Takes: Remember earlier in the week when Syria was a thing, and President Trump promised that Assad would pay a “big price” for gassing his own citizens yet again? Nothing has happened since, aside from Russia accusing Britain of the attack. JC has zero use for the Washington Nationals as an organization, and tells us why they’ll always be the Expos to him.
POS Nuggets: Are we watching professional basketball, or professional wrestling? Silly manufactured controversies dominate the NBA leading up to the playoffs. JC and Joel break down the latest, what the NBA and MLB get wrong and how the NFL gets it right.

How will Tiger Woods perform at The Masters? Plus, is Trump serious about this caravan thing with the National Guard? It's a jam-packed episode of The POS Show.
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - Stop! Mueller Time! There have been a lot of tea leaves to read this week from the Mueller investigation. JC and Joel discuss the latest developments and where it might all be headed - Congress. Plus, we give shout outs to some A+ trolling of Trump’s woes with his legal team.
Hot Takes - Trump promised so much winning that we’d be tired of it. Well, if this Trade War is what “winning” looks like, he might be right. We also take a look at the enormous distraction that is EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt, and why he might not be long for the Trump Administration.
POS Nuggets - LeBron James vs. Nick Saban? Yes, it’s a thing and it could get ugly. LeBron is suing Alabama athletics to stop its barbershop series. Alabama is not budging. The only thing we know for sure is that there are some lawyers fixing to get paid. Also, we discuss Trump deploying troops to the Mexican border and how epically dumb it is.

The President is tweeting about DACA and immigration again, and America scratches its head. Plus, a breakdown of the Final Four semis and who will win all the marbles. All this and more on this episode of the POS Show!
Show Rundown:
The Big POS - Fox News host Laura Ingraham is feeling the pain after nearly a dozen advertisers pulled their ads from her show. It all started when she went after teenage activist David Hogg for his rejection from four colleges. Hogg responded by calling for a boycott of her advertisers, which quickly led to big name brands yanking their ads from her air. JC and Joel break it down and discuss boycotts as a response to unpopular speech outside of the Ingraham case, and whether there is a “slippery slope.”
Hot Takes - Do you even DACA, bro? Joel wants to know whether Trump legitimately misunderstands what DACA is, or whether he’s intentionally misrepresenting it to rile up his base. JC takes on some of the hype surrounding Spring Football games, and urges fans to just enjoy them for what they are.
POS Nuggets - The Final Four is in the books, and the NCAA basketball championship is on tonight in San Antonio. Michigan is on a hot streak, and Villanova has been shooting threes like nobody’s business. JC and Joel make their picks. Also in Nuggets, Republicans and Democrats alike are complaining about Senator Mitch McConnell’s leadership style. What impact will his heavy handedness have on the Senate?

The Big POS - Is it a carousel? A roller coast? Or something that jerks your body around and makes you vomit that literally hasn't been invented yet. This week saw a Cabinet Secretary replacement, the last day of a Comms Director, and all told was probably the LEAST eventful personnel week recently for the Trump White House. What do all the staffing changes mean, and is the writing on the wall for Chief of Staff John Kelly?
Hot Takes - Joel doesn't think anyone cares about baseball, and crowd shots of opening day today would seem to bear out his opinion. JC doesn't have much use for anything Colin Kaepernick says, but believes he ought to be playing football.
POS Nuggets - There's a new targeting rule in the NFL, and it's confusing as hell. What will it mean for offensive ball carriers, and why does literally no one know the answer to that yet. Also in Nuggets...will the Old Ball Coach be calling ball plays from a sideline again soon? It's starting to look that day, as a new pro developmental league looks to staff up.
Predictions! - The boys give their Final Four winners, agreeing on one but disagreeing on another.

The Big POS
Lots of moves in and around Trumpland. A big Russian crackdown as 60 Russian "diplomats" are expelled. But is it the Administration's attempt to change the subject from a chaotic past week?

Hot Takes
Joel's Hot Take could land him in a very hot place. Meanwhile, JC weighs in on the possibility of ESPN finally cracking down on LeVar Ball coverage.
POS Nuggets
The Final Four field is set. Despite a lot of improbable upsets and blowouts in the Tournament, the mostly familiar faces populate the Final Four.
The guys weigh in on the March for Our Lives, David Hogg, and the idiotic tactic of demonizing Marco Rubio.
